Ma Xiaoyao's ability to become one of the top ten champions really shocked many people. Even Ma Xiaoyao himself probably didn't expect it.
In all previous martial arts competitions, the students who finally won the championship were all fourth-level warriors. No academy with a third-level warrior has ever won the championship! Ma Xiaoyao has broken the record!
Although he won the championship and entered the top ten, Ma Xiaoyao was not too happy, because there is still a final waiting for him tomorrow. The other nine championships are all fourth-level warriors, and one of them is still with
He has a grudge... What awaits him tomorrow will definitely be a fierce battle! A fierce battle that threatens his life!
Maybe! Ma Xiaoyao won't be able to come back alive tomorrow.
…
In the evening, Sima Wuxin held a grand celebration banquet at his expense, and the protagonist was of course Ma Xiaoyao.
Everyone gathered around Ma Xiaoyao, worshiping Ma Xiaoyao as if he were a god.
The banquet was not over until midnight.
After all the teachers and classmates left, Ma Xiaoyao returned to his residence.
Lying in bed alone, not sleepy at all, he was worried, really worried! He had no confidence at all in tomorrow's final!
"Dong dong dong!"
A slight knock on the door suddenly reached Ma Xiaoyao's ears.
"Who?" Ma Xiaoyao got out of bed, walked over and opened the door. When he saw the man standing outside the door, Ma Xiaoyao was stunned: "Is it you?"
"You're surprised, aren't you?" Boyao looked at Ma Xiaoyao with a smile: "Can you let me sit in?"
"Ah! Vice dean, please come in! Please come in!" Ma Xiaoyao hurriedly stepped aside, invited Bo Yue in, and then personally made a cup of tea for Bo Yue. Back then, Ma Xiaoyao worshiped Dean Leng Rufeng as his teacher.
, Boyue was at the scene, so Ma Xiaoyao recognized Boyue. Although he only met him once, Boyue left a deep impression on him.
Boyue looked around at the layout of the room: "How is it? Are you used to living here?"
"Thank you, Vice President, for your concern! I live very well here!" Ma Xiaoyao thanked him.
Boyue pulled up the chair and sat down, picked up the tea cup and blew on the hot air from the cup, then took a slow sip: "Well, it tastes good."
"The vice president has given me the award. This is just ordinary green tea. If the vice president likes to drink it, I will get you some when I leave later." Ma Xiaoyao said.
"Then I'm not welcome." Boyue didn't refuse. He accepted the tea to show his kindness to Ma Xiaoyao, proving that he didn't regard Ma Xiaoyao as an outsider.
"I wonder if the vice-president is here late at night... What are your orders?" Ma Xiaoyao asked while secretly looking at Boyue's face.
"Well, I'm here...to ask...how confident are you about tomorrow's final?" Boyo said with a smile, "Where do you think you can get?"
"What's your rank?" Ma Xiaoyao smiled bitterly and shook his head: "The vice-dean really thinks highly of me. It's already good if I can keep the last place..."
"The last one?" Boyue's lips curled up slightly: "You are too humble."
"I'm not being modest, I'm telling the truth." Ma Xiaoyao's expression was very serious: "I know how much I weigh, and I can compete with a third-level warrior, but against a fourth-level warrior...
…I feel a little overwhelmed..."
"Didn't you just defeat a fourth-level warrior today?" Boyo said with a smile.
"Vice Dean, please stop making fun of me." Ma Xiaoyao waved his hand: "How I won, you should be able to see clearly. That guy was too arrogant and arrogant... so much so that I took advantage of him.
If he is more cautious, I can't win."
"Haha..." Boyue smiled slightly: "You are quite self-aware."
"That's for sure." Ma Xiaoyao pouted: "To live in this world, you must first have self-awareness. Only by knowing your own strength and status can you live better and safer. Even if you want to be arrogant, you can't.
You must have the capital to be arrogant."
Boyue nodded: "I didn't expect that you know a lot at such a young age."
"I'm no longer young, I'm already in my thirties," Ma Xiaoyao said.
"In the secret realm, everyone's lifespan is generally over one hundred years old, and some people live to be over one hundred and fifty years old. Isn't your age in your thirties considered young?" Boyo said with a smile.
"Vice Dean, you came here so late, don't you want to discuss age with me?" Ma Xiaoyao said.
"No, no, no." Boyo waved his hand: "I'm here today...I want to help you."
"Help me?" Ma Xiaoyao was stunned: "How can you help me?"
"No, here you go." Boyo took out a transparent object from his arms, which emitted a dazzling halo under the light.
"What is this?" Ma Xiaoyao asked doubtfully.
"Golden Chanyi." Boyue said a name: "Don't underestimate it, you can wear it on your body and you will be invulnerable!"
"Jin Chanyi? Invulnerable?" Ma Xiaoyao's eyes lit up.
Boyue nodded: "Yes, even if it is invulnerable, no matter how sharp the sword is, it cannot break through the golden cicada clothes." At this point, Boyue paused: "This golden cicada clothes are made of extremely rare golden cicada silk.
I have done many experiments to compile it. I chopped it with swords, burned it with fire, and even soaked the golden cicada clothes in poisonous water... In the end, I could not harm the golden cicada clothes at all. This golden cicada clothes is definitely worthy of the title.
It's a peerless treasure.
Ma Xiaoyao did not take over Jin Chanyi rashly, but looked at Bo Yue in surprise: "Why?"
"what why?"
"Why did you give me such a precious treasure?"
"You seem to have made a mistake. I didn't give it to you, but lent it to you."
"Lend me?"
"Yes, I'll lend it to you! After you finish participating in tomorrow's finals, you must return Jin Chanyi to me! Jin Chanyi is my lifeblood, how could I be willing to give it away? I just lent it to you for use.
They are all very distressed.”
"...Okay, lend it to me...Why do you want to lend it to me?"
"Because you are the dean's disciple."
"Did the dean ask you to come?"
"Although the dean didn't say it, I can tell that he cares about you very much... In order to prevent the dean from being sad, I took it upon myself to lend you the Golden Chanyi."
"..."
"Take it! With this golden cicada, your chances of survival will increase!"
"..."
"What? You don't want it?"
"Yes! Of course I want it! I don't want to die! But... in this case, I will owe you a favor."
"Don't worry, I won't ask for benefits from you..."
"Deputy Dean, thank you! Thank you from the bottom of my heart! I will keep your help in mind!"
…
Ma Xiaoyao is by no means the kind of pedantic person. Of course he has to accept the good things that come to his door. As for how to repay this favor in the future, that is a matter for the future. Anyway, let's get over the current hurdle first.
Only by living can you have unlimited possibilities.
Seeing Ma Xiaoyao accept Jin Chanyi, a smile suddenly appeared on Bo Yue's lips. When he came, he was worried that Ma Xiaoyao was too stubborn and pedantic and would not want Jin Chanyi... Now it seems that it is Bo Yue.
I think too much about it.
Logically speaking, since Ma Xiaoyao accepted Jin Chanyi, Boyue should leave... But Boyue sat firmly on the chair and drank tea, with no intention of leaving at all.
"Ma Xiaoyao, are you familiar with the other nine champions?" Boyue asked slowly.
Ma Xiaoyao shook his head: "I only know two of them... one is Ouyang Zilan, and the other is Liu Huashan... I have met Ouyang Zilan once, and we are not very familiar with each other. As for Liu Huashan... I don't know him either.
not very familiar with……"
"Not familiar? How can this be done? As the saying goes, only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win every battle. If you don't know them at all, you will suffer a loss in the duel." Boyue said: "Well, I happen to be free, so I will follow you.
Just tell me."
"Thank you, Vice President..."
"Among the nine champions, Xiahoumen is the strongest. He has entered the ranks of fourth-level warriors ten years ago. Now he is only one layer of window paper away from the fifth-level warriors. His overall strength is higher than that of fifth-level warriors.
The warriors are not much different, so without any big surprise, the first place should be his."
"The second most powerful person is Xiahou Weiwu. He and Xiahoumen are cousins. Although they are relatives, their relationship is very bad. Over the years, the two have had many conflicts, but in the end they were suppressed by the teacher. Xiahou
Wei Wu is also a fourth-level warrior, and his strength is only slightly worse than that of Xiahou Clan."
"Next are Feng Xiaoping, Miao Kuihai, and Shi Haisheng. The three of them are equally powerful."
"The next ones are Ouyang Zilan and Liu Huashan. They are about the same strength."
"Finally, there are Wu Xiaohui and Mu Silin. They are both equally powerful."
"Next, let me talk about what kung fu they are good at... Xiahoumen and Xiahou Weiwu are good at fists and kicks. They rarely use weapons. Feng Xiaoping and Miao Kuihai are experts at using knives, and Shi Haisheng is an expert at using swords.
, Ouyang Zilan's weapon is a soft sword, which is usually worn around the waist as a belt. Liu Huashan is good at hidden weapon kung fu, and with a certain degree of fire, if you are not careful, you may be plotted. As for Wu Xiaohui and
The two of them, Mu Silin, usually practice hard qigong, and their bodies are very strong. It is difficult for ordinary weapons to harm them. By the way, Mu Silin is good at using poison, so be careful about this."
…
Boyue gave a very detailed introduction, introducing everyone's skills and weapons they were accustomed to using, and even summarized everyone's temperament.
After listening to this, Ma Xiaoyao benefited a lot. With this information, Ma Xiaoyao is more confident about tomorrow's final.
"Well, that's all I have to say! Do you remember it all?" Boyo asked.
"Remember!" Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "Deputy Dean, thank you! Thank you for helping me so much! Thank you so much!"
Boyue waved his hand: "Don't thank me, you should thank the dean! If you were not the dean's disciple, I would not care about you!"
"Dean...he...he doesn't seem to want to see me..." Ma Xiaoyao smiled bitterly: "He doesn't admit that I am his disciple at all..."
"That was before." Bo Yue shook his head: "After this period of observation, the dean's view of you has changed. He appreciates you now! He plans to accept you as an official disciple after you finish participating in the finals.
Got it!"
"Really?" Ma Xiaoyao didn't seem to believe it.
"Do you think I'm lying?" Bo Yue said with a smile: "Ma Xiaoyao, this is a rare opportunity, you have to seize it! Being able to become the official disciple of the dean is definitely a blessing.
Glory! I don’t know how many people will envy you then!”
Ma Xiaoyao smiled slightly and said nothing. Maybe others wanted to become Leng Rufeng's disciple, but Ma Xiaoyao didn't want to. He didn't want to be controlled or restrained by others. After becoming a disciple, although his status was improved, his freedom was also lost. However,
He didn't dare to say these words.
At least I dare not say it now!
"There will be another lottery tomorrow. I hope you have better luck and don't get the two brothers Xiahoumen and Xiahou Weiwu at the first opportunity." Boyue said.
"I shouldn't be so unlucky." Ma Xiaoyao smiled bitterly.
"Okay, it's getting late. You should rest quickly. I'm looking forward to your performance tomorrow." After patting Ma Xiaoyao on the shoulder, Boyue stood up and left.
After sending Bo Yue away, Ma Xiaoyao began to study the golden cicada clothes. This golden cicada clothes were very thin and light, almost weightless, and even softer when touched. Ma Xiaoyao pondered for a moment and took out a piece of golden cicada clothes.
He pointed the dagger at Jin Chanyi and chopped it down.
After cutting it, Ma Xiaoyao hurriedly picked up the golden cicada and checked it. There were no traces and the golden cicada was intact.
"It's really strong!" Ma Xiaoyao was overjoyed. The black gold dagger he used just now was extremely sharp and could cut iron like mud. Such a sharp dagger could not hurt Jin Chanyi. If you wear Jin Chanyi, you can really increase your chance of saving your life.
.
Thinking of this, Ma Xiaoyao took off his coat and put the golden cicada clothes on his body. Although the golden cicada clothes were very thin, they were actually very elastic. Ma Xiaoyao easily put the golden cicada clothes on his body. The size was just right.
.
The only regret is that Jinchanyi can only protect his upper body. It would be perfect if it could protect his whole body.
Unfortunately, nothing is perfect in the world.
Ma Xiaoyao is indeed a little greedy. Back then, Boyue spent countless efforts to make such a small piece of golden cicada clothing. He asked many people for help before he could barely make it. At that time, Boyue also wanted to make a full-body suit.
Yes, it's a pity that I am powerless. Treasures like Jinchansi are really too rare, even if you have money, you can't buy them.
Bo Yue has always regarded Jin Chanyi as his lifeblood. If it weren't for Dean Leng Rufeng's face today, he would never lend Jin Chanyi to Ma Xiaoyao.
Bo Yue did not expect Ma Xiaoyao to achieve a good ranking. He only hoped that Ma Xiaoyao would survive in the end! With the golden cicada to protect him and Ma Xiaoyao's cleverness, the chance of survival was still very high.
In this world, there are many treasures, such as golden cicada silk, which is one of them. In ancient times, golden cicada silk was more abundant, but later on, golden cicada silk became more and more rare... almost to the point of extinction, everyone
It is said that the golden cicada silk is spit out by the golden cicada (the golden cicada here refers to the zerg in ancient times, which is not the same species as the golden cicada that people often say now). Unfortunately, no one can prove it, and the golden cicada only exists.
